Emily (she/her) moved to Nashville in 2019 to work as a post-doctoral fellow in health psychology at the Osher Center at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. She felt truly inspired by the city and developed a strong personal and professional community. Although Emily has training and practice in various clinical settings, most of her clinical experiences have been in university mental health along the East Coast. She currently specializes in working with college students, young adults, and early career professionals with eating disorders and the accompanying trauma, anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and relational issues.

Emily’s therapeutic style is integrative. She is warm and welcoming, deeply empathic, humorous, enthusiastic, and compassionate. She believes in creating an authentic, non-judgmental space for her clients to heal, grow, and create sustainable change. Emily practices from a multidimensional lens: integrating person centered, relational work and evidence-based mind/body interventions to help her clients reconnect with themselves and the world around them. She identifies as HAES-informed and is a proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community.

Outside of the office, Emily can be found hanging out with her cat Harper, getting outside for joyful movement, and volunteering with animals at Nashville Humane Association. If she wasn’t a trained psychologist, she would have gone to culinary school, and loves cooking/preparing meals for her loved ones.
